Name
There is one song I would never get tired listening to, it somehow reminds me of me, and life and how tough it is out there. Like the world is a mean place somehow, I am just looking for a place to hide. An assylum.Believe or not, I first bought my Dizzy Up The Girl (DUTG) album, by Goo Goo Dolls in 1998, when the movie City Of Angels was released. That was when the song Iris was everyone's craze. Lucky me my DUTG album had bonus tracks which carried the song Name in it. That was the first time I listened to it. Fell in love with it immediately. I would say it is a brilliant album. However, I got the cassette version of it. That time, blum ader CD haram. And also.. I din have much in my pocket to spare for ori CDs. Even if I did like today, I still say: Yea, HIDUP CETAK ROMPAK! But good CDs like DUTG, I would go and buy their album. Call me weird, but I do screen, and I do practice 'double standard' treatment to the public.
So here's the lyrics to the song. Actually went all out finding for it. Name is actually from the album: A Boy Name Goo.
Excellent song. STill listen to it when I feel the need to be cradled. Especially at nite, when I am driving alone, after dropping Pres off at his place. Once in a while I get that feeling, vulnerable they call it... I'm sure everyone does.
Name by GooGoo Dolls (fav band for all times)
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away
And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But if you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em your name
Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are
You grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em your name
I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are come back down
And I won't tell em your name
